An Exercise to Stop Being a Victim




When I was a little girl, I used to enjoy the Highlights for Children Magazines where there were pictures and I was asked to find, ”What’s wrong with this picture?” I loved finding all the out-of-place items in the drawing.

When things start to change in my life and I get uncomfortable with the change and the unknown, I ask, “What’s right about this picture?”

Look at the change that might happen after wherever is your stressful situation, and write down all the things that are blessings in disguise.

When you get tired of the victim game (which either “Poor ME” or “Angry ME”), you take the first step toward mastery of change and mastery of your boundaries.
